SOLD BY MY HUSBAND TO THE LYCAN KING 73: I’m Staying, Zevran
She was the last person I expected to see, especially after Lucien had confirmed that she had already left. Yet there she was, sitting beside me, and the tension from the curse eased almost immediately.Unfortunately, Aiden had already gotten what he needed. He now knew there was something wrong with me and that Dahlia might be the cure.I pushed the thought aside and focused on her. The chanting continued, but it no longer affected me.Barely an hour after Dahlia arrived, I got up, pulled her with me, and hurried out of the room with a muttered excuse to the Alphas and Elders. Once we reached my room, I locked the door behind us and faced her."Dahlia…why did you come back?"She stared at me directly. "Tell me the truth."Something inside me sank."I told you the truth before.""You told me that you killed Vivianne.""Yes."Her eyes searched mine. "Did you kill her because you wanted control of the Northern territories?"I said nothing."Or did you kill her to protect her?"Dahlia st

DahliaI stared out through the window of the car, watching the scenery blur past as we drove farther away from the apartment.I still couldn't believe I was actually leaving.The decision had seemed so simple when I made it. I couldn't stay there after everything I had learned about Zevran. I couldn't keep pretending that nothing had happened just because I cared about him.Yet sitting in the car with Lucien, I couldn't shake the uncomfortable feeling that I was leaving something unfinished.Lucien had been quiet for most of the drive. He sat behind the wheel, his eyes occasionally shifting towards me. I noticed it the third time and frowned.“What?” I asked.He looked at me for a moment before turning his attention back to the road ahead.“Are you really going to leave Zevran to be publicly outed for his curse?”I stared at the back of his head, almost annoyed by the question.“Yes. I don't care what happens to him, Lucien.”He was silent for a few seconds.“Even knowing what it cou

ZevranThe event day finally arrived, but despite everything we had done to prepare for Aiden's plans, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was going to go wrong.We had doubled the guards, secured every entrance, and screened everyone attending. Lucien had personally gone over the security arrangements with me twice, and on paper, there was nothing else we could have done.Yet I wasn't relieved.I sat at the head of the long dining table, listening to the conversations around me while keeping track of every entrance and unfamiliar face. The hall had been transformed for the occasion, with white-clothed tables, carefully arranged dishes, royal decorations, and musicians playing softly in the background.It was supposed to be a celebration.For everyone else, it seemed to be.Lucien caught my eye from one of the entrances and gave me a small nod. Everything was secure.I looked away.Knowing the palace was secure and actually feeling safe were two different things. Aiden had bee
SOLD BY MY HUSBAND TO THE LYCAN KING 70: Leaving
DahliaIt was my last day in the country.The day after I arrived at the guarded apartment, Zevran had sent his Beta, Lucien, to bring my things from the hotel. By the time I stood beside the bed, my suitcase was already open, most of my clothes packed. My passport and the travel documents Lucien had arranged were safely tucked inside my bag.Everything was ready, yet instead of feeling relieved, I felt a tightness in my chest.After everything that had happened, I had convinced myself there was nothing left for me with Zevran. So why did leaving still hurt?A knock sounded at the door.“Come in,” I called.Celeste walked in carrying two large shopping bags. She took one look at my luggage and sighed.“So you're really doing it.”I gave her a small smile. “I am.”She placed the bags on the chair and came over to the bed, looking at my packed clothes before meeting my eyes.“I still can't believe you're leaving.”“I can't believe it either.”She frowned. “Then don't.”I shook my head a
SOLD BY MY HUSBAND TO THE LYCAN KING 69: Without Her
ZevranAiden had made his intentions clear, and there was no way I’d sit still and wait for his next move.I was in my study when Lucien walked in carrying a thick folder. His serious expression immediately caught my attention. He placed it on my desk and opened it.“What did you find?” I asked.“Aiden has been preparing for the upcoming event.”“I know that already.”“This is different.” Lucien spread several papers across the desk. “He's not planning to expose you through documents or council records. He's found another way.”My eyes narrowed when I noticed one name.“A witch?”Lucien nodded. “A powerful one.”I leaned back. “What does Aiden want with a witch?”“He's paid her to perform a ritual during the event.” Lucien hesitated. “One that will trigger the curses of anyone cursed within the vicinity.”My fingers tightened around the edge of the desk.“You're sure?”“I wouldn't have brought this to you if I wasn't.”I looked at the papers again. If my curse was triggered in front o
SOLD BY MY HUSBAND TO THE LYCAN KING 68: An Opportunity
ZevranI knew it was Aiden.There was something about the way he had been watching me lately, the questions he asked during council meetings and the way his attention lingered whenever I missed an appearance or left an event unexpectedly. He was too observant to dismiss those things as coincidence, and he was far too ambitious to let an opportunity like this pass him by.The problem was that knowing something and proving it were two very different things.I couldn't accuse Aiden of anything without evidence. He was still the head of the council, and despite everything I knew about the man, he had never been stupid enough to leave something incriminating where I could find it. If I attacked him without proof, I would be handing him exactly what he wanted.A reason to turn the council against me.I sat behind my desk, staring at the documents in front of me without actually reading them. My fingers tapped slowly against the wood as I went over everything in my head again.Aiden didn't k
